In Part 2 of our conversation with Chris Koch, we move beyond how the ISZL–KCC partnership began and into what it became.

After nine years of leading students to Kokrobite, Chris reflects on what sustained commitment actually does — for the students, for KCC, and for the adults guiding them. We talk about growth you can’t measure on a transcript, the responsibility that comes with “service,” and how relationships — not projects — are what truly last.

In this episode, we explore:

• What long-term partnership looks like in practice
• The difference between volunteering and showing up consistently
• How students change when they’re trusted with something real
• What Chris learned personally after nearly a decade of returning
• Why impact is built over time, not in ten days

This is a conversation about depth over optics. About staying. About listening.

If you haven’t listened to Part 1, we recommend starting there to hear how it all began.
